Piers Morgan sparks Twitter storm over ‘emasculating’ comments

CONTROVERSIAL TV presenter Piers Morgan has form for being offensive. But this time, it seems he has gone too far.

CONTROVERSIAL British television presenter Piers Morgan has mocked one of the world’s greatest action heroes and the internet is not having a bar of it.

Morgan, 53, took to Twitter overnight to condemn James Bond himself, aka Daniel Craig, for securing his daughter in a baby carrier as he walked the streets of New York this week.

The 50-year-old actor and his wife, fellow actor Rachel Weisz, 48, welcomed their little girl, Ella, last month.

Like any new parent, Craig was spotted looking slightly sleep-deprived as he wandered through the East Village with baby Ella.

For most women across the world, the site of James Bond, strolling down the street with his infant strapped safely to his chest has the makings of an erotic hardback, but the action star’s fathering skills didn’t impress Morgan.

“Oh 007 … not you as well?!!!” Morgan tweeted, before declaring him an #emasulatedBond.

After some initial grief, he attempted to explain his tweet by claiming Craig should have been carrying his baby in his bare, muscular arms, instead of this thing he called a ‘papoose’*.

“He’s using an emasculating papoose,” Morgan wrote.

“James Bond would never use a papoose to carry his babies.”

Of course, because no self-respecting man could ever be expected to perform mundane parenting duties like carrying your baby around in a carrier.

How #basic.

It was here that I had to stop and take a calming breath, so maybe you should too.

*I have since found out that a papoose is British term for a baby carrier.

But if this idiotic tweet sparked anything good in the world, it was that it brought thousands of dads out of the woodwork to unanimously slam Morgan and show him exactly what it means to be a real man.

And that is doing the dishes, walking the dog, putting the toilet seat down and strapping your kid to your chest to get sh*t done.
